What??? That is not a boom box that I hear? This speaker from SoundPEATS is a Dynamo! I have a few little portable speakers which are fine if I am in a quiet room but in a party atmosphere they are not really loud enough. This little waterproof speaker is loud, the sound is clear and quite precise. The fact that it is waterproof make it great for outdoors, camping, hiking, at the beach or outdoor barbecue or pool parties.
In addition to being waterproof, the speaker is shockproof. It has a bumper all around much like the Cell phone bumpers.

This speaker is Bluetooth enabled and easy to pair. It comes with a charging cable as well as an audio cable if you want to use it plugged into your phone. I especially like the fact that it has a sturdy wrist strap for portability and hanging.

Charms are all the rage. These pretty little ponies are a unique way to show your style. These can be used as key chains or to decorate and add flair to a purse. Hang them on a belt loop to make a statement or use them to decorate a gift, hanging from a fancy bow. Whatever you do with them, they are hard to resist.

These pony charms are soft PU leather, stuffed with a fiber fill and neatly stitched. There is detail embossed on each side. Details like a heart clad saddle and reigns. There is also a contrasting mane and tail. A silver money bag and teddy bear adorn the pretty pony which hangs from a star.
​

The Pony charm comes in several colors. As you can see, I chose the golden pony. This adorable charm also comes with a cute drawstring bag for gifting. Young or old, the Pony charm is sure to bring a smile to your face.

I have never seen a multitool quite like this one. In addition to the standard tools, a knife, a Phillips and flathead screwdriver, a saw, a can opener and double-sided knife on one side, this one also has a hammer, axe head and plier on the other. I tell you, it's a toolbox in your hand. It has an attractive wooden handle and locking clip. It also comes with a heavy duty canvas pouch for storage and portability and safety cover on the axe.
This multitool is made of stainless steel and has a good bit of weight to it. In other words, it is no sissy tool.

The hatchet is very sharp and is great from cutting roots when pitching a tent. It is also good for cutting up kindling for a campfire. My husband has a toolbox full of tools but I have this multitool which fits in my purse and is always handy whenever I need it.

With Fathers Day around the corner, why not got Dad one of these all in one tools. It is unique and useful. Face it, tools are toys for men! I would definitely recommend this one!

We have the robotic vacuum cleaners so why not a lawn mower for the yard? This lawnmower makes perfect sense and it does not cost anymore than a ride on mower, in fact, it is less and it does the work for you. I don't have one but I do want one! Just think of the time you would save cutting the grass, especially if you have a large lawn.

They thought of everything. I really would love to test this mower. If it works as good as the video shows then it would be well worth it. Reviews are 3.9 starts which could be better but I am really intrigued by this concept and wanted to share.

I am a huge fan of these VR glasses. I started my addiction with Google cardboard and have advanced to the more durable and comfortable variety. My problem is that every time I get a pair, someone in the family wants it so I cave in and then get another pair.

This new set from VR House is awesome. What I like about these VR glasses is that when you wear them in conjunction with the right app, it is like you are there, participating in whatever is going on inside the box. I have traveled to Europe and did sightseeing from the comfort of my sofa. No sore feet, no passport or plane travel needed. Sit back and enjoy your vacation.

When I was a kid, my parents took me to the NY Worlds Fair and I remember seeing some of the things that they said were going to be our future. Many of them came to fruition. I remember hearing that we would be able to immerse ourselves in a virtual reality world. I didn't fully understand then but I certainly do now. These are great for relaxation. They help to take your mind off of your worries. Want to ride on a roller coaster? How about scuba dive? Drive a race car? How about go into space and battle invaders? You get the picture!

This is a small taste of what the Eiffel Tower looks like through the VR glasses. Of course I was only able to video one side.

This is what the split screen looks like without the glasses.

​​The Virtual Reality Headset 3D VR Glasses Headset BOX sold by Szqdt on Amazon is lightweight and very comfortable. They have adjustable elastic bands which fasten with Velcro. The memory foam around the eyes contours on your facial curves giving a custom fit. The box accommodates iPhone and Android up to 6”. I have a Samsung S4 which is rather large; however it fit even with my bumper case. It was difficult to close completely though but without the case fit perfectly. There are several ways to adjust your viewing area. The two dials on the sides move the screen closer or further away which is great for those of us with not so perfect vision. You can adjust the viewing area so that you do not need to finagle the box while wearing eyeglasses. It also has an adjustment on the top which moves the eye sockets in for narrow faces or outward for a wider face. Each of the boxes that I have reviewed in the past has their own unique features. What I like about this one is the fact that there is actually a spring loaded adjustable clip inside the cover that secures your phone so that it does not move around. The VR glasses also came with a microfiber cleaning cloth, instruction booklet and a free gift of a phone ring (a ring that attaches to the back of your phone to use as a stand, hang or as extra security while holding your phone).

I am very happy with these VR glasses. They would make an excellent gift for Fathers day or graduation. I received the goggles for testing, evaluation and review. Based on my personal experience with these glasses, i would definitely recommend them.

Jewelry made of Tungsten Carbide is becoming increasingly popular for jewelry. The chemical compound is comprised of equal parts of tungsten and carbide. It is a fine gray powder that can be molded into shapes to be used in industrial machinery, tools and jewelry. It is one of the strongest compounds known and can be polished to a brilliant shine. It is no wonder that the mans wedding ring from Smile Zone uses this tough, weighted masculine material.

This ring is very attractive and expertly crafted for comfort. The edges are rounded and smooth. There are several designs to choose, however, this one really caught my eye. The frosted and slick texture catches the light giving it style and sparkle. It feels substantial and solid. When you think about it, a marriage is meant to last forever and so should the wedding ring. This ring is virtually indestructible.

The ring does not have to be a wedding ring. It can be a friendship ring or just a nice piece of jewelry. Father's day is quickly approaching and this ring would make a very thoughtful gift. It comes in a nice hinged gift box and this price is unheard of for a ring of this caliber. But don't take my word for it, shop around online and you will see that this is a great deal!

If you have every tried the Google Cardboard VR glasses then you would love this version, These 3D VR glasses by SoundSoul are well constructed, comfortable and easy to use.
The experience of being totally immersed into the experience is totally awesome. There are tons of free apps for VR glasses. You can travel the world, explore caves, skydive, ride on roller coasters and travel through time and space.

​These VR glasses come with a cleaning cloth and a lens which you can either adhere to the VR glasses or to your cell phone which enable you to take your own VR 3D movies and photos! There are lens adjustments to focus which is nice if you wear glasses. With the adjustments, you can wear the glasses comfortably. There is plenty of memory foam which contours to your face for a soft comfortable fit. The elastic headband has Velcro closures which are adjustable. This headset is incredibly lightweight albeit large. It fits my Samsung S4 with bumper case quite nicely but my hy husband has an Outter Box which prevents you from closing the front all the way. You can still hold it in place though to view.

I took this video through the VR glasses. You can't get the full effect of seeing both sides but this will give you an idea of what is in store for you when you put these goggles on.

When I saw this umbrella, I just had to have it! The colorful Zebra print, starts out white but as soon as the rain hit the umbrella, it turns to the colors of a rainbow.

This umbrella from JS Lifestyle is like no other. The outer surface has a special coating offering UV protection as well as excellent waterproof properties.

One touch button for opening and closing the umbrella make it quick and easy to access. The trifold design allows it to fold so compactly that it fits in your purse, yet opens to a full size umbrella.

An outer sleeve is also included for carrying and storing the umbrella which is equally colorful.

The design of the reinforced, very strong steel frame make this umbrella virtually wind proof. Don't you just hate when a strong wind gust comes and turns your umbrella inside out?

This Zebra umbrella is so darn cute that you will be the envy of all your girlfriends! I have had the opportunity to use this several times now and everyone who sees it always asks me where I got it. If you need a gift and want something that is different and useful, not to mention adorable, then consider the umbrella from JS Lifestyle.

​If you are looking for a very unique quartz movement timepiece, look no further. The watch from Niceshop is made of mostly all natural environmentally friendly materials. The watch case is hand made from bamboo and the soft leather strap is fastened with a metallic buckle. The crystal is a composite mineral called hardlex which is very durable and scratch resistant.

The natural grain of the Bamboo gives each watch a unique and original feature.The face is plain and numberless; the hands have smooth lines and are black in color.There is a sweeping second’s hand which many of the newer watches do not have.The geometric design on watch’s backdrop creates a focal point and adds a little pizzazz. The watch runs off of a battery which is included.I have used the watch for a month now and it keeps accurate time.Although it does say that it is water resistant, it is not waterproof so care must be taken when near water.

​I appreciate the craftsmanship of this watch and the fact that it uses elements of our environment. It is very appealing to the eye and can be worn by a man or woman. The leather band is adjustable however the watch itself is large. It is accurate, attractive and a great conversation piece . It would make an excellent gift for the conservationist, and with Father’s Day around the corner you might want to consider this watch. It does come with an elegant gift box too.

​The Professional hair straightening brush from Jecnovo is a first for me. I have the kind of hair that is neither curly nor straight. It kind of waves, but not in a good way. When I was younger, I had long hair and would use a clothes iron on it to straighten it out. Now, I wear my hair in a bob cut but if I don't style it, I look like I have clown hair. I thought I would give this brush a try.
​There are several pros and cons which I will discuss.

First the Pros:
I like the controls and the fact that you can control the heat. With 5 heat levels, there is a setting for all hair types. The ceramic heating element provides even heat transfer.
It has a built in negative Ion generator which reduces static and makes hair more manageable. It also does an excellent job straightening and reducing the frizzes.

And the Cons:
The unit is heavy and feels a little awkward. It takes some practice and getting used to handling it. The bristles are hard. This is specifically for straightening, not good for creating body.
​My Conclusion:
I would say that thisbrush is a deal. It does an excellent job straightening and smoothing out your hair. It is sturdy and made well and should last.
